  • Angels Fall, Canaima trail by a CAn dude...

    Guys, wherever I said about doing a trip to Venezuela was written by Ned Bacon, you will find it at the Off Road Adventures August 07 Magazine.

    This first Californian guy (that I know about it) did the Canaima trail!!!
    What are you waiting for? Just let me know when you wanna go there and let’s plan the trip!!!

    BTW, Le Choza fruit drink S/B Lechoza LOL!!!!

    The gas prices, the Venezuelan clock, the food (arepas, cachapas, etc), the pretty girls, the malls, the speed limit, the roads, water crossing and snorkels, mud, the old taxis car (30 years old malibu’s, LTD, Plymouth) , the 80 series, helicopter support…all that stuff was presented by Ned.

    If you are not subscribed to the Magazine, go to the closest 4 wheel parts store and get one…

    I enjoyed the article and my wife is actually reading it, she wants to know what makes me laugh so hard, so she is laughing now…

    I hope you like it,

    Roberto

    I’m disappointed, the Campisi brothers must know that air pressure goes up to 50-60psi on that trail. They also must know that 9-00 are the tires to use, not the fancy Mickey Thomson claws or the Swampers they used. This is not their first trip, what is wrong with those guys?. Anyways, the plane ride ($800) and hike in sounds like a interesting plan B.

    Roberto.
